The Olympics in Lausanne

On February 7th, the Olympic Winter Games in Sochi, Russia began. And where was I when the opening ceremonies started? The Olympic Museum in the Olympic Capital of course!

Althought the Olympics are not taking place in Lausanne, it is the headquarters for the International Olympic Committee and the city is home to a beautiful museum and park dedicated to Olympic history. I spent some time there enjoying the views and returned to watch the opening ceremonies with some friends at a free viewing ceremony inside the museum. (Which was very convenient for foreign exchange students without televisions!)



With love, from Lausanne
